Jacquesson Champagne Dizy Terres Rouges Extra-Brut 2015 white

Jacquesson Champagne Dizy Terres Rouges Extra-Brut 2015 is a rare, terroir-driven Champagne crafted entirely from Pinot Noir grown in the renowned Terres Rouges vineyard in Dizy. Produced in very limited quantities, it captures the intensity and precision of the 2015 vintage with Jacquesson’s signature dry, sculpted style. Combining old-vine fruit with minimal dosage, this cuvée offers a strikingly pure expression of Pinot Noir from one of Champagne’s most thoughtful and exacting producers.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, Dizy Terres Rouges 2015 shows a luminous, subtly tinted hue with fine, persistent bubbles that form a delicate, refined mousse. The nose is expressive and precise, opening with red berry notes—wild strawberry, raspberry, and redcurrant—layered with blood orange, pomegranate, rose petals, and a chalky, mineral edge. With air, more complex nuances emerge: hints of dried herbs, subtle spice, and a faint, savory smokiness. On the palate, this Extra-Brut is taut, dry, and deeply vinous, showcasing the power and structure of Pinot Noir. Intense red fruit is framed by bright, mouthwatering acidity and a firm, chalk-infused backbone. Flavors of cranberry, cherry skin, citrus zest, and a touch of bittersweet grapefruit lead into a long, saline finish with a fine phenolic grip. The low dosage keeps everything laser-focused and refreshingly crisp. While already compelling now, the 2015 Dizy Terres Rouges has the concentration and structure to evolve beautifully for 8–10 years from the vintage, gaining more savory, truffle, and dried-fruit complexity with time in bottle.

Production
Dizy Terres Rouges comes from a single, prized lieu-dit in the Premier Cru village of Dizy, where Pinot Noir vines are rooted in clay-rich, iron-tinged soils over the classic chalk subsoil of Champagne. The site’s warm exposition and distinctive red-tinged earth lend both ripeness and depth to the fruit, while the chalk preserves freshness and tension. Grapes are harvested by hand at optimal maturity, carefully sorted, and gently pressed to preserve purity and finesse. Fermentation typically takes place in large oak foudres or neutral barrels, allowing the wine to develop texture and complexity without overt oak flavor. The wine then rests for an extended period on its lees in bottle, building creaminess and aromatic depth, before disgorgement with a very low dosage to maintain a pure, Extra-Brut style that transparently reflects the character of the terroir and the 2015 vintage.

Food & Serving
This is a gastronomic Champagne that shines at the table. It pairs beautifully with refined dishes built around poultry or game bird—duck breast, quail, or roast chicken with herbs—as well as tuna, salmon, or langoustine, especially when grilled or lightly seared. It is also superb with charcuterie, cured ham, terrines, and aged hard cheeses such as Comté or Gruyère, where its structure and acidity cut through richness. Serve well-chilled but not icy, ideally around 10–12°C (50–54°F), to allow the aromatics to fully express themselves. A short decant in a carafe or simply pouring into large white wine glasses 10–15 minutes before serving can help the wine open up and reveal its full complexity.

Producer
Champagne Jacquesson is one of Champagne’s oldest houses, founded in 1798 and long admired for its pioneering spirit and quietly uncompromising quality. Based in Dizy, in the Vallée de la Marne, the estate has become a benchmark for grower-style, terroir-focused Champagne, working predominantly with their own vines across Dizy, Aÿ, and Avize, among others. Rather than chasing volume, Jacquesson is known for its meticulous vineyard work, low yields, and minimal-intervention approach in the cellar. The house has earned a devoted following among serious Champagne drinkers for its single-vineyard bottlings and characterful Extra-Brut wines that highlight the nuances of site and vintage. Cuvées like Dizy Terres Rouges underscore Jacquesson’s status as one of the region’s most respected and influential producers of premium, terroir-driven Champagne.
